Jim,

If you are getting a good spark from the coil through the big lead that plugs into the center of the distributor, that eliminates the pick up as that is what makes and breaks the flow to cause the coil to step up your voltage. The voltage goes into the center of the distributor cap and the rotor is what makes contact inside the cap and feeds juice to each plug. Take a look at the center contact inside the coil and the rotor contact and make sure they aren't burned or dirty. Also make sure that the rotor is making contact with each terminal that a plug wire goes to as it turns.

Ron
